They blocked the ceremonial guards in front of them, and drew their weapons from nowhere, including powerful crossbows, aiming them directly at the woods on both sides.
What is even more horrifying is that the windows of the dozens of iron-shaft carriages were automatically exposed, and what was revealed was a handful of bed crossbows, and the bright long arrows on the bed crossbows were all pointed at Woods on both sides.
At this time, the world seemed to be quiet, but the sound of air conditioning came from the woods! There are actually many people hiding in the woods!
Who are they? Why is it hidden inside? And how did these officers and soldiers discover them? Along with these questions, it became weird at this moment.
This is a place called Luting, which already belongs to Prince Xing’s Mansion! Who is so bold as to dare to spy on the actions of officers and soldiers near the capital?
However, these officers and soldiers did not seem to give these people a chance to explain. As the general on the horse waved his flag, the bed crossbow in the carriage was like a fatal meteor, and it penetrated directly into the woods on both sides.
This kind of bed crossbow was only used for siege, and the long arrows fired could even penetrate the big tree surrounded by the two people. So after Long Arrow entered the woods, there was a scream immediately.
The general on the horse had a proud smile on his face, as if he had already understood this situation. When the second wave of arrows entered the woods, they saw someone rushing out of the woods. These people are all wearing black trousers and black hoods. With all kinds of weapons in their hands, when they went out, they didn't immediately rush over and attack these teams.
Because a shower of arrows came out of nowhere, but they fell from a higher place. Almost all of them fell from mid-air like a heavy rain, and they all shot into the woods on both sides. However, there were more people at the commanding heights, and they were cut off. These people's retreat in the woods.
"The wind is blowing hard! The way back has been cut off! Let's work together and escape from the mouth of the gorge!" I don't know who screamed, but it was the sound coming from the woods.
Looking at the rain of arrows in the sky, these people who were hiding in the woods, relying on some towering trees for shelter, and still thinking of luck, suddenly became desperate at this moment!
If it were just a few waves of flying arrows, it would really be nothing to people like them! But watching the flying arrows turn into a rain of arrows, these people finally knew that not only was it impossible to be good today, but it seemed that whether they could leave was a question!
When they ran out, the carriage team here once again made them despair, because the bed crossbow in the carriage fired ruthlessly again, completely blocking their approach. Even when some people rely on their strong skills, they approach like lightning. Unexpectedly, these honor guards holding powerful crossbows had already shot the arrows in their hands without having to aim.
So amid the screams, dozens of people fell down beside the woods, screaming. Some people thought that the powerful crossbow would eventually run out, so they took advantage of the opportunity and rushed over like a dragonfly. Unexpectedly, when there were still a few meters away, during the gap between the crossbows, there was a loud banging sound, and the smell of gunpowder filled the air.
These people who wanted to take advantage of the loopholes actually died worse than those who were hit by arrows. The weapon that was struck on the body caused blood to flow out, revealing a big blood hole. Some people even had blood holes all over their bodies. These people finally understood that if they ran towards the carriage, they would only end up dead. So after someone slipped through the net, they actually followed the gap and rushed directly to the outside of the gorge on both sides, regardless of the occasional attack of arrows.
I didn't expect that the people in this carriage team would not pursue them. I was dumbfounded when I saw the bodies of several fish that had slipped through the net and were about to reach the mouth of the gorge. Because two teams flashed out from both sides of the gorge, with bright bows and arrows pointing directly at them. Not to mention trying to fly by, even if you have a pair of wings on your body, I'm afraid they will be shot down at this moment.
Ding Dong, someone's weapon was thrown directly on the ground, and the sharp arrow would be shot out at any time!
! ! !
Everyone around them fell silent, watching as someone disarmed the people who were running in both directions, pinned them to the ground, and then tied them up with beef tendon ropes.
Everything seems to be quiet!
Although there are still people who are not dead, wailing and bleeding on the ground, they are also low moans. For Xiao Sha here, they are simply a sound that can be ignored.
At this moment, it seemed that there was a strong smell of blood wafting out of the woods on both sides, filling the air with an unsettling feeling. But there was a complete silence inside, as if because of this unavoidable strangulation, the woods on both sides had become completely quiet.
Are all the people ambush or hiding inside already dead?
Who are these people?
Hiding inside, what on earth do they want to target these officers and soldiers?
On the tops of the gorges on both sides, there was a sudden commotion, and then huge flags were erected!
It was the official dragon-patterned flag of the Lingnan imperial court, roaring fiercely on the mountain peaks and fluttering in the wind.
Countless bows and arrows under the banner were shining dazzlingly in the sun, and their arrows were still aimed at the woods below. Looking at the posture that was ready to go, it was really not enough for nearly a thousand people.
Such a large group of officers and soldiers were suddenly at the top of the mountain gorge. Although the mountain peak is not particularly high, it is obvious that these people did not just touch it! If the people in these woods don't notice, then these people are most likely to have been lurking for a long time!
This is obviously a game!
A seemingly simple, but actually intertwined game!
A game that cannot be called a game at all!
Because of the counterattack, it turned out to be a fatal tomb for these people!
The people in the woods might have wanted to ambush or monitor this team of officers and soldiers sent by the imperial court. The team obviously returned to the capital from other states, but I don't know what the reason was that aroused the covetousness of these people.
However, seeing the effect of the arrow rain just now, these people felt a little bit like they were working on their own, so I guess the people in the woods on both sides were not from the same organization. At first everyone thought they were smart, but now it seems that they were mistaken for being smart.
The party that originally wanted to set up an ambush was now being followed by the mantis stalking the cicada and the oriole behind them. Not only was it being plotted against, it was also plotted against by the hunter.
After smelling the bloody smell that filled the canyon and the pitiful groans on the ground, someone finally understood that this matter was not simple.
The officers and soldiers on the top of the mountain have long been lurking. In the gorge where the radius is most conducive to ambush and attack, people look down at everything and harvest everything at the most critical moment! As for this convoy, it seems that it is just a bait now, or it is just a trap in itself.
